Let's get on with it!

## Installation

### Step 1: Link required files

First and most important, the jQuery library needs to be included (no need to download - link directly from Google). Next, download the package from this site and link the bxSlider CSS file (for the theme) and the bxSlider Javascript file.

```html

```

Or, if you prefer, you can get the bxSlider's resources from the **CDN**:

```html

```

### Step 2: Create HTML markup

Create a `

    ` element, with a `
  • ` for each slide. Slides can contain images, video, or any other HTML content!

    ```html







    ```

    ### Step 3: Call the bxSlider

    Call .bxSlider() on `

      `. Note that the call must be made inside of a $(document).ready() call, or the plugin will not work!

      ```javascript
      $(document).ready(function(){
      $('.bxslider').bxSlider();
      });
      ```

      * Fix: Reverse #714, fixes #722.
      * Fix: Repo Tag #729
      * Fix: #720 pagerCustom issues

      4.2.0 Introduces a streamlined build process using [gulp](www.gulpjs.com). Along with this new build process the projects folder structure has been changed. You will find a `dist` folder with all assets ready to use, including both minified and unminified versions of the javascript. These assets should be ready to go. In `src` you will find the uncompiled assets, including a new less version of the css for bxslider. This is an important step for bxslider. It will help speed development up and keep work clean. It also paves the way for a big revamp we have planned in the future.

      **Unfamiliar with npm? Don't have node installed?** [Download and install node.js](http://nodejs.org/download/) before proceeding.

      From the command line:

      1. Install [gulp](http://gulpjs.com) globally with `npm install -g gulp`
      2. Navigate to the project directory, then run `npm install`

      You now have all the necessary dependencies to run the build process.

      ### Available gulp commands

      * `gulp` — Compile and optimize all files to `dist`
      * `gulp styles` — Compile css assets only to `dist`
      * `gulp scripts` — Compile js assets only to `dist`
      * `gulp images` - Run lossless compression on all the images and copy to `dist`
      * `gulp jshint` — Checks JS and JSON code for errors based on our .jshintrc settings

      ### Version 4.1.2
      * Added `bower.json` configuration file. Manage bxSlider as a dependency using [bower](http://bower.io/).

      ### Version 4.1.1
      * Removed imagesLoaded library and added iframe preloading support
      * Added responsive option - setting to false will prevent $(window).resize binding

      ### Version 4.1
      * Carousel mode (minSlides / maxSlides) was re-written to be more intuitive.
      * SlideWidth now acts as it should (slides respect the width value).
      * SlideWidth now properly parsed: accepts string ("600px") or integer (600).
      * Slider now only needs to load visible slides (by default) in order to initialize which results in much faster loading. A "preloadImages" setting allows for configuration.

      Long live Zep.
